The Cup of Russia: Verdi takes 2nd place

Our one and only Starcraft II player, Artem "Verdi" Avramenko managed to take the second place at The Cup of Russia, being defeated in the grand final by Artem "sLivko" Garavtsov.

The 2013 edition of The Cup of Russia is over now, and a total of four games were played there including Starcraft II. In the Starcraft II tournament participated 32 players from all over Russia and the prizes pool was about ~$1,400. The bracket system was single elimination, best-of-one in the first two rounds, best-of-three in quarter-finals and semi-finals, and best-of-five in the grand final.

Therefore, today 13th July, our Prottos player was in action at The Cup of Russia. Until the grand final, Artem "Verdi" Avramenko did not encounter any problem, beating every player without losing any map. Unfortunately, he lost 1-3 in the finals against Virtus.Pro player, Artem "sLivko" Garavtsov.
